Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to knots is 0.59248380129641, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 0.59248380129641 knots:

1 ft/s = 0.59248380129641 kt

To convert 917 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 917 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 0.59248380129641 kt

917 ft/s → V(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V(kt) = 917 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 543.30764578881 kt

The final result is:

917 ft/s → 543.30764578881 kt

We conclude that 917 feet per second is equivalent to 543.30764578881 knots:

917 feet per second = 543.30764578881 knots

Alternative conversion
